Pink Carnations

Sarah and Wally brought these pretty carnations home last weekend for us to enjoy. The flowers were getting so heavy I had to trim the stems shorter and shorter to keep them upright. They ended up in this pretty vase that I got one summer at the "upscale" thrift shop in Estes Park. The woman at the shop commented on the "cut crystal", but I wasn't fooled and really didn't care that it is only pressed glass. I just loved the shape and the heavy bottom so it won't tip over. I seem to have quite a growing collection of glass items!

About Me

After more years than I care to admit, I'm now a retired teacher. I'm a Colorado native, love to play the hand bells at church, will always choose reading over cleaning, and I dearly love my family. In the spring and summer I love to get out in my flower gardens and play in the dirt!
